The Debian Project does not object to the experiment named
"Dunc-Tank", lead by Anthony Towns, the current DPL, and Steve
Mc Intyre, the Second in Charge. However, this particular

Debian uses the Condorcet method for voting.
Simplistically, plain Condorcets method
can be stated like so : Consider all possible two-way races between candidates.
The Condorcet winner, if there is one, is the one
candidate who can beat each other candidate in a two-way
race with that candidate.
The problem is that in complex elections, there may well
be a circular relationship in which A beats B, B beats C,
and C beats A. Most of the variations on Condorcet use
various means of resolving the tie. See
Cloneproof Schwartz Sequential Dropping
for details. Debian's variation is spelled out in the
constitution,
specifically, A.6.
